Online Therapy in Ontario

Get support that meets you where you are, no commute required.

Whether you’re navigating a busy workday, caring for a child, or simply prefer the comfort of your own home, online therapy can help you access the support you need. On your terms.

What Is Online Therapy?

Online therapy (also known as virtual counselling or e-counselling) allows you to meet with a licensed therapist via secure video from anywhere in Ontario. At Vaughan Relationship Centre, we offer high-quality individual counselling, couples therapy, and family counselling services in a flexible and confidential online format.

Sessions are conducted via a secure, encrypted platform and are just as focused, supportive, and personalized as in-person therapy.
